MELANIE trained at world-famous RADA before working for fifteen years as a theatre and television actress. She discovered theatre-in-education while with the Royal Shakepeare Company and has been taking her skills into schools and communities ever since. Melanie comes from a theatre family and still has many links with professional drama!
Melanie loves:
'Watching the journey the kids go on from when they first come to when they stand up there and do an amazing piece of Shakespeare. It is wonderful to see how they blossom and grow.
'They come because there is nothing to do at home, to keep out of trouble, to let their feelings out and to meet new people - or because they want to be an actor and it is their passion.'
